Want to cut malnutrition? Don’t forget these 3 things

Nearly ten years ago, a paper in the journal The Lancet changed the way countries around the world approached improving nutrition.

The paper identified ten critical nutrition interventions – all of them direct nutrition interventions like micronutrient fortification, breastfeeding, and vitamin A supplementation. And it posited that if those interventions were scaled to reach 90 percent of children in the 34 countries where good childhood nutrition is most lacking, they would reduce stunting rates by 20 percent. These ten interventions became the standard roadmap to improving nutrition for health officials globally.
